Eli Horowitz is more than a writer who distributes his stories in non-traditional packages. Mostly: he's an entertainer seeking to land the occasional philosophical haymaker simply by writing himself out of the wild parameters he sets for himself. Along with Micah Bloomberg, he's also one-half of the team who created the smash podcast "Homecoming," and you'll love listening to him tell stories, including the one about the time he sat in a room and directed Oscar Isaac and Catherine Keener.
